Well, SORRY. I Would have done research, had I not found the logo in a picture that took place in some sort of factory. If I had found on a picture of a street corner or something, then I would hoave looked in to it.

Yeah, 7-11s are in Japan like every 50 feet. In most towns you can give directions in relation to them. Who the hell posted this one anyway? This whole article should be on failblog. “Look alike FAIL” Or “Parent company FAIL”

She is right about it being the easiest place to withdraw cash with an international ATM card though.

7 & i Holding and post offices, those are our options. Citibank in a pinch.

Agreed, Seven and Holdings is the Japanese version of 7/11, so it doesn’t help.

Good effort though. :/

It looks the same because it IS the same. Do a little research before you post something so stupid next time. Why would anyone steal such a popular logo and try to pass it off as their own? Think about it.

There are ATMs in every convenience store here. 7 & i-holdings is the name of the parent company. It has nothing to do with the ATM.

By: Bradders

Yes, they are the same company, in effect.
7-11 sold a franchise in Japan to the Ito-Yokado company in 1974.
After 7-11 got into financial difficulties in 1980′s, Ito-Yokado bought a majority share of the “parent” company.
Read all about it in “Project X: Seven Eleven”
Japanese companies don’t shamelessly rip off trademarks. Any more. Probably.
I’d call that a fail.

Failblog definitely needs to hire a fact checker.

Also there was recently a “spelling fail” for a delicatessen called “Delly”

But 60 years ago “Delly” was as widespread a term as “Deli”…
just a few seconds on wikipedia, guys….

Seriously? 7-11 looks like 7-11?

By: nick_nack

nick_nack — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 01:59:30 +0000

aikoe,
here was my flawed logic:
aikoe = aikio-e
aiko = ‘love child’ or ‘child of love’
ukiyo-e = image of the floating world
ukiyo = floating world
so…
aiko-e = image of the child of love
but ‘image’ lacks dramatic flair, so…
aikoe = depiction of the child of love

I suppose it could be broken down as “ai koe”, but I won’t translate that since it could be offensive.

Or maybe your name is Aiko E, where the “E” is just an abbreviation, but “Aiko” would still mean “child of love”.

By the way, this is a perfect example of my last comment.

aikoe,
I know from experience I can do the research intelligently and still publicly humiliate myself.

Does aikoe mean “depiction of the child of love”?

By: aikoe

aikoe — Thu, 17 Sep 2009 03:57:29 +0000

Can we get a few more people to be intelligent enough to do their research before publicly humiliating themselves? I’m not sure it’s entirely clear yet.

My favorite part of the internet is how someone can make a simple innocent mistake and then 100 people can rip on him for days, weeks, months at a time.

Can we get a few more people to repeat the same message? I’m not sure it’s entirely clear yet.

yah the guy who made the second comment is right. its the
parent store and is practically just a bigger version of 7-11.
i went to japan last summer and those 7 and i holdings are at
every corner. its actually kinda funny.

I remember being saddened when I was in Japan and all the comforting 7-11 signs were changed to “7 and i Holdings”. But ultimately the saru udon remained just as tasty, and the tappuri kuriimu puriin remained just as sweet, and the Boone’s Tropical was still only 500 yen a bottle, so it was all good

oh no who’d have thunk that 7Eleven’s shop logo looks like 7Eleven’s corporate logo
(7Eleven being a brand of 7&i corp.)

Next Ford dealership logo Looks like Ford Motor Company logo
